But currently I am a bit tired, there is no android phone that I am passionate about, oneplus has given me nothing but problems, Samsung with exynos is a disaster (not to mention the new blockages at sideload and the green stripes on the display), I don't even want to go near all the other Chinese brands, and Nothing is not what it promised to be.

I want to go back to iOS but there are a few things holding me back:

how can sideload be managed on iOS? Are there modified apps like youtube, reddit?
I follow a lot of NSFW channels on telegram, discord and reddit itself, are there any problems on iOS? are there ways around this? (my girlfriend has iOS, and every time I want to forward an nsfw gif she doesn't see it)
surf the sea, is it complex on ios? Especially in terms of gaming?

TBH only yt, nsfw and modded apk keep me on android. Thanks a lot in advance

Came here to say, why is OP dealing with all these bloatware companies? Samsung is the Apple of Androids - decent hardware decent OS for those who like it, but ridiculously bogged down with prevention features.

I also have the Sony Xperia 1 IV and it's been stellar. Lineage support if I don't want the main Android, otherwise I'm pretty much free to do whatever I want on the phone. Plus I actually have a headphone jack still and an SD card slot.

Sonys have the stupid 21:9 aspect ratio that's like a tv remote. Camera also sucks vs the competition despite sony making the lenses and their own standalone cameras

The camera's don't suck, it's that Sony doesn't apply post processing. If you edit the photo like a photographer would they look as good or better.
